Six-speed manual with Honda E-Clutch: what it changes

This model pairs a six-speed manual with Honda E-Clutch. In everyday riding, that can mean less hand fatigue in stop-and-go traffic and smoother takeoffs—while still keeping the familiar feel of selecting gears. It’s a great fit for riders who want the engagement of a manual transmission with added convenience for urban San Diego streets.

Confidence in traffic

Smoother low-speed operation for parking lots and short commutes.

Cruising flexibility

Six gears help you keep the engine in a comfortable range as speeds change.

Final drive: #520 O-ring-sealed chain; 14T/36T

Braking, tires, and stability at real-world speeds

Tire footprint

Front tire: 130/90-16 • Rear tire: 150/80-16. A cruiser-friendly stance that feels planted in corners and on freeway on-ramps.

Geometry feel

Note: This model meets current EPA and California Air Resources Board (CARB) standards.

Weight, seat height, and why it matters

Performance isn’t only about speed—it’s also about how easy the bike is to manage. With a 27.2-inch seat height and a 379-pound curb weight (including required fluids and a full tank), the Rebel 300 E-Clutch is built to feel approachable when you’re balancing at a stoplight, backing into a parking spot, or making tight U-turns.

Low-speed control

A lower seat and manageable weight help reduce tip-over anxiety.

All-day comfort

Cruiser ergonomics and a narrow feel can make longer rides less tiring.
